We use methods in molecular biology, immunology, and structural biology to study host-pathogen interactions, with the goal of informing strategies aimed...
Gustavus Adolphus Pfeiffer Professor of Biological Chemistry and Molecular Pharmacology
The long-term goal of our research program is to understand the molecular logic of signal transduction, focusing on proteins implicated in human disease. The... Read more about Stephen Charles Blacklow
Assistant Professor of Biological Chemistry and Molecular Pharmacology
We are interested in understanding transport mechanisms in the cell. In particular, we are interested in how molecules are transported into, out of, and...
Diverse control mechanisms converge to ensure that gene transcripts are expressed and processed accurately. Dissection of these interactions has proven...
Professor of Biological Chemistry and Molecular Pharmacology
Our laboratory takes molecular approaches to herpesvirus replication and latency. These studies provide excellent models for biological processes in...
The Farnung Lab aims to answer key mechanistic questions at the intersection of chromatin and transcription. We employ biochemical, biophysical, and structural... Read more about Lucas Farnung
Assistant Professor of Biological Chemistry and Molecular Pharmacology
The Ubiquitin Proteasome System (UPS) is involved in virtually any cellular process and frequently implicated in human pathologies. Ubiquitin, through the... Read more about Eric Fischer
We work on positive strand RNA viruses, with a current focus on understanding how cells sense viral invaders to initiate an immune response. We also have...
Our laboratory aims to understand normal cell division mechanisms and to discover cell division defects that are unique to cancer cells. We take a range...
We are interested in the development of the vertebrate musculo-skeletal axis. Using chicken and mouse embryos as model systems, we combine developmental... Read more about Olivier Pourquie
The research interests of the Schwarz lab are centered on the use of genetics to probe the cell biology of the nervous system. We use Drosophila, mouse,...
For a living cell to function properly, its cellular processes must be strictly controlled not only in time but also in space. We are interested in how...
Assistant Professor of Biological Chemistry and Molecular Pharmacology
Our lab studies the molecular mechanisms of sensory transduction, seeking to understand how animals detect the physical and chemical cues from their...
